What to bring

Check

Zoom Enabled Phone or Tablet

Ensure that your device has video and audio capabilities, so the Pro can see your pipes and help to clear the clog.

Flashlight

A flashlight can be helpful to light up those hard to see places. Unfortunately, you cannot use Zoom and a flashlight on your device at the same time, so keep that in mind when choosing a light.

Plunger

Plungers can be used to clear clogs in more than just toilets. Plunging creates a force to push against the clog, to help clear it.

Drain Cleaner

Some Pros have a favorite or "go-to" drain cleaner, but if you have one type already, first try that. 
Check

Plumbing Snake

If you have one, this is one of the best tools to clear more challenging clogs. If after chatting with the Pro, you determine you need one, don't fret-- they start at just $10. 
Check

Channel Lock Pliers

Channel Locks work well for grabbing any irregularly shaped object, like a pipe connection. 
Check

Paper and Pencil

Always helpful to have a paper and pencil handy so that you can jot down a few quick notes as the Pro guides you through clearing the clog. 

For reference, here is our Tool Catalogue.
